- We can’t improve what we don’t measure. Civilians and decision makers alike can use police data as a tool for evaluation and accountability. In this proposal for change, the PAB analyzed the RPD’s publicly available resources and found that the RPD does not consistently adhere to best practices for data transparency
- The PAB recommended that the RPD release data about certain law enforcement activities, including complaints about police misconduct, instances of officers shooting firearms, use of force, arrests, calls for service, traffic and pedestrian stops, and crime reports. All of the datasets should be up-to-date and machine-readable.
